What are NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll Errors

NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like MpSigStub.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. NETGEAR Genie) could share the same NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.

Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared DLL file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll is attempted to be loaded either when NETGEAR Genie is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll errors include:

Your NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with NETGEAR Genie), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading NETGEAR Genie, system crash while loading NETGEAR_PLC_L2_API.dll, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.
